How much longer will Slade be in the manager's job at Orient............5 games nil points -10 goal difference.
Reckon he will be gone pretty shortly.He seems to do well for one season and then loses the plot completely. Sad but true.

His post-match interviews after a defeat tend to have recurring themes:
- Not really sure what happened out there today.
- We will work harder.

A very likeable man, but doesn't inspire much confidence.

He seems to be a good judge of players. And do we have a new scout yet?

He must be a good boss though, as Adam Virgo was prepared to give him the 'benefit of the doubt' after dropping his captain for a stupid sending off.

Never forgot how different he sounded in interviews on the day of the start of the season after he had kept us up,sounded totally different,normal,no passion or desire-he appears to be a fire fighter like red Adair.

Will be gone before next weekend's game I reckon. Hearn won't tolerate their start even though they massively over-achieved last season. Shame as really nice, decent bloke and will always be grateful for him keeping us up but shows Tony did the right thing (and then some!!) even though it seemed a bit harsh at the time.

amazes me how Slade can take over at a struggling team halfway or later in a season and manage to transform the team, but when starting the beginning of a season doesnt seem to have a clue!!

Russell Slade is a good manager. They should stick with him. I seem to remember them having a poor start last year then just missing out on the play off's.
